Osama bin Laden's three wives mostly stayed mum while being questioned, reveals the Pakistani intelligence agent who interrogated them. Despite speaking with them (or, at least, trying to) once or twice a week for months, the agent tells Reuters he didn't garner much that was useful. But it seemed clear that they were devoted to their husband. "They were all nostalgic whenever they talked about him," the agent says. While the older two mostly kept silent, the youngest, Amal al-Sadah, "was always angry whenever I spoke with her."

"She objected to being questioned and rarely gave away anything." Still, "I found her very interesting, " he says, adding that she did note that both she and bin Laden admired Che Guevara. "She seemed like a rebel so I questioned her about Latin American leftists." As for the other wives, "they were boring," he says. The agent was able to deduce that bin Laden had probably lived in Abbottabad for six or seven years.

And in more interesting news, I felt like I was coming down with a cold tonight so I took a Zicam. I'm starting to feel a little better. I just ate some oatmeal with raisins too.

He found the younger wife interesting because she admired Che Guevara the Argentinian marxist who went to Cuba to help Castro in the revoltuion. Well understanding someone's political ideology can be fascinating. At least Guevara did accomplish something that bin-Laden didn't before Che was murdered. Of course Che and Castro had a much smaller goal than her husband. Maybe the next time she hooks up with a radical extremest she'll remember to find one that only plans to take on a small government. Not the whole western civilization. But what these loons seem to be missing in their quest to destroy us is, we are self-destructing. So why don't they just sit back, watch, and wait patiently. Then they can come in and feed on the carnage like Bain Capital. Now wouldn't that be a much better strategy? Yes it is but its not as much fun as doing all the killing and destroying yourself.
